We have enjoyed our journey from store bought to homegrown, from dependent living to self-reliant living, from hectic to happy!Sharing what we have learned, the mistakes we have made, how we do things and our continuing journey with others who are interested is something we look forward to doing.We are not professors of anything and hold no bachelor’s or master’s degrees in farming, homesteading, animal sciences or botany.We live the life and work hard at what we do.There are so many ways to homestead…..we would like to share our ways with you.We also offer guest speakers for some of our classes.

Click on the links below to go to a full description of what each class will cover as well as fees and any available discounts.Some classes have age limits and others will have limits to the numbers of participants we can accommodate.Classes may have a recommended dress code. Many of our classes have a minimum attendance requirement so pre-registration is required for most classes.HOWEVER some classes are open ended and will not have a maximum size limit.Those classes will be open to those looking to attend at the last minute and will be advertised once the minimum class size is reached.

1)It lets you see our teaching style and our farm and allows you to determine if we will be a compatible teacher for you.Not everybody "clicks" and we want to make sure you like us!!If you decide you don't like us.....but most people do (or at least they say they do LOL).....you aren't out the additional cost of one of the in-depth seminars.

2)It lets you take advantage of our multi-class discount for any class (after the basic class) that you take.So if you take around three of our in-depth classes the basic tour is practically paid for!

3)You might find an aspect of homesteading that you didn’t even KNOW you would be interested in!

4)It is just plain FUN!

All prices listed below are pre-registration prices unless specifically stated otherwise, add $2 per fee for payment received “at the gate” (day of the event) instead of via preregistration. Check or money-order accepted for Pre-Registration, but cash only at the gate.Registration fees are NON-REFUNDABLE once a date has been set for a class (which will be no more than 11 days after blank registration forms are sent to interested participants).Checks will not be cashed until class size has been reached.We allow 10 days from the date we send out registration forms to receive all registrations and determine a class date.Attendees who preregister will be notified via email or phone of class dates and we will also post class dates on our Facebook page as well as on our webpage calendar.Class dates will generally be scheduled for about 2-3 weeks after minimum pre-registration is reached.If a class is cancelled by us, we will refund any fees paid.Classes held outdoors will be held no matter what the weather.
